  • Hardness Testing in Powder Metallurgy

    Hardness testing in powder metallurgy requires completely different parameters and procedures compared to classic hardness testing applications. Samples have to be prepared well to enable the hardness test. Powder has to be embedded in resin, e. g. with a hot mounting press, and afterwards the...
  • Metal Powder and Feedstock analysis with the Eltra Elementrac Series

    All complex technical products like cars, airplanes, or even bicycles are equipped with other, less complex technical parts, like engines and gears or bicycle frames, to ensure their functionality. These smaller technical components again are assembled from basic parts like housings, screws,...
  • Moder Solution for Safe Debinding of Ceramic Parts

    Technical ceramics are manufactured in powder-based production processes. The ceramic powder component is formed via various manufacturing steps and is finally sintered. Organic binders are applied to ensure cohesion of the powders during and after shaping. They are used, for example, for the...
  • Worst Case Leakage Current Testing

    Leakage current testing is the measurement of electrical “leakage current” that results from powering an electrical appliance via mains or dc power. Leakage current is the unwanted or unintended flow of electrical current that presents an electrical hazard such as shock or burn.
